Licensed Objects

Veeam ONE can be licensed in two ways: per-socket and per-VM.

Per-Socket Licensing

Veeam ONE can be licensed by the number of CPU sockets on managed VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V hosts. A license is required for every occupied motherboard socket as reported by the hypervisor API. A managed host is a host that is included in the monitoring and reporting scope with Veeam ONE inclusion rules. For details, see Choosing VMs and VM Containers to Monitor and Report On.

To provide more flexibility and introduce a trial period for VM management, Veeam ONE offers the concept of New VMs for Rental licenses. New VMs are VMs that were discovered within the current calendar month. New VMs are tracked separately in the managed VMs license counter and do not consume the license until the beginning of the new month. On the first day of the new month, the number of new VMs is added to the number of managed VMs and the new VMs counter in the license resets. New VMs are not included in a license usage report.

Note:

Veeam ONE license does not put any restrictions on the number of managed vCloud Director servers and Veeam Backup & Replication servers.
